Menu Plan Monday
Rockin’ the Red
We took the kids to the ISU Homecoming Parade last weekend. This was their first parade and it was great to experience it through their eyes.
Caleb and Camden were very excited about all of the candy that was thrown their way. We got so much we donated it to our church’s Harvest Fall Festival this weekend.
Emma was a good sport and hung out in her stroller the entire time. She had a great time waving at all the people and collecting her own bag of candy.
We were fortunate enough to run into a friend of the boys. Elijah and his family moved a couple of hours away 2 years ago and we don’t get to see them often enough. It was great for the kids to get to spend some time together.

Fall Weekend
Last weekend, our family took our annual trip to Tanner’s Orchard. This is a weekend we eagerly look forward to once the weather starts getting cooler.
The kids favorite part is the huge playground. They also love the cider barrel train rides.
If the weather hadn’t been so cold this year, they probably would have played longer. But, we were freezing and got inside quickly to get all of our goodies and enjoy an apple treat.
We, of course, got a 1/2 bushel of honeycrisp apples, a family favorite.
The weekend before, we went to Rader Family Farm. It is a pumpkin farm that has expanded this year and they had some fun things for the kids to do.
We need to get back there soon to get our pumpkins for Halloween.
